Strong sales growth: + 53.4%

Sales, totaling $10.8M, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 were up by 53.4%
compared to $7.0M for the previous year ended on June 30, 2007. Sales for the
fourth quarter of 2008 reached $3.7M compared to $2.8M for the previous quarter
and $1.9M for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. As of June 30, 2008 the
order backlog totalized $20.0M compared to $14.0M on June 30, 2007, which
represents a 43.0% increase in one year.


The 53.4% growth in sales for the 2007-2008 fiscal year over the previous year
is due to the completion of municipal contracts. With its latest acquisitions,
Sigma Environmental Solutions Inc., Wastewater Technology Inc., and most
recently, on July 3, Itasca Systems Inc. ("Itasca"), H2O Innovation's range of
operations now covers a significant part of North America and the Company's
integration efforts and sharing of knowledge, started several months earlier,
are beginning to bear fruits.


6.9 points increase of its gross margin

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Company's gross margin reached
24.8% of its sales, compared to 17.9% in 2007, which represents a 6.9 points
increase. For 2008 fourth quarter, the gross margin reached 30.7% compared to
22.3% for the previous quarter and (11.1%) for the fourth quarter of fiscal year
2007.


Operating expenses

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, operating, selling, administrative
and general expenses reached $4.9M or 44.9% of the sales compared to $3.5M, or
49.7% of the sales in 2007. For the 2008 fourth quarter, operating expenses,
selling, general and administrative expenses reached $1.7M, or 46.8% of the
sales compared to $1.2M, or 41.6% of the sales for the previous quarter and
$1.0M, or 50.0% for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007.


Net Loss

H2O Innovation finished the 2008 fiscal year with net loss of $3.6M compared to
$2.9M for the same period ended June 30, 2007. This nominal increase of $744,399
for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2008 was due to a number of factors,
including a complete reorganization at the senior management level, the
integration of newly acquired companies, and the Company's positioning on new
markets in Western Canada, United-States, and abroad. If non recurring expenses
of about $655,000 are excluded, the Company is at essentially the same loss
level as on June 30, 2007. These non recurring expenses include a severance pay
for an executive ($250,000), a stock-based compensation for past services
($280,000), expenses for acquisitions not completed ($60,000), and various
expenses for restructuring and integrating the new subsidiaries ($65,000).


RECENT EVENTS

A portfolio completed with industrial water treatment technologies

On July 3, 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of Itasca. This third
acquisition in the United States will allow H2O Innovation to more rapidly
increase its gross operating margins and benefit from an industrial customer
base in a geographic area that has yet to be exploited by the Company: the North
American Midwest. This transaction increases annual recurring income tied to
after-sales service, maintenance products, and replacement parts by $2.3M.
Moreover, this transaction adds a 3,400 square meter production platform, in
Minnesota, to the 6,000 square meters already in Quebec.


Backlog of $21.0M (as at August 26, 2008)

As of August 26, 2008, the latest order backlog of the Company reached $21.0M
compared to $14.0M as of June 30, 2007. This increase of 50.0% in 14 months is
the result of the Company's strong organic and external (acquisitions) growth.
The organic growth reached $4.0M or 28.5% and the external growth reached $3.0M
or 21.5%.


About 75.0% of the contracts are related to the municipal market. Therefore, it
appeared essential and strategic to anticipate a diversification of the
Company's customer base. Following this approach, H2O Innovation completed the
acquisition of Itasca on July 3, 2008, in order to rapidly expand the Company's
presence in fast-growing industrial sectors such as energy and agrifood.


To support its strong growth, H2O Innovation has also recently, during the first
quarter of the new fiscal year, signed two debt financing agreements for a total
of $5.0M.


2009 OBJECTIVES

The Company is now integrating and consolidating its operations in order to
generating a positive working capital. H2O Innovation has already begun to
integrate the most recent subsidiaries acquired in order to optimize human and
material resources. In this regard, as of the first quarter of 2008-2009 the
Company has already proceeded with the restructuring and reallocation of certain
costs with a view of reducing fixed sales and administrative costs by $750,000
for the next fiscal year.


Also, for the fiscal year 2009, H2O Innovation's management has settled four
business objectives:


- Reach a sales level that can generate a positive cash flow

- Raise the beneficial growth margin on its sales

- Reduce the percentage of its operating, selling, administrative and general
expenses (percentage of its sales)


- Increasing its backlog
